FU~~~! I just wrote a ton and when I backspaced , it actually sent me to back pages and erased EVERYTHING.

Anyways, here it is again:

I plan on cosplaying Stocking from Panty & Stocking on Saturday.
So I ordered what looks like the perfect OP from Bodyline.

While I was waiting for the shipment, we got a new mailbox for the apartment complex, and I still didn't have the mail key.  So I contacted the people who I would get that from and they were like, "Just come on in, fill out a form, and pick up your key!"  Then the lady asked for my apt #.  It turns out that since Stewart and I are leasing the apartment, we would need to contact the Real Estate Agency to send them forms and approval and proof that Stewart and I have permission to live there and get the mail key.

So, at the Real Estate Agency, they guy who was in charge of us left for whatever reason, so now we had a nice lady.  But it still took a week and finally I get a call from her on Monday saying we were good to go.  So I call the Place-Holding-My-Mail-Key-Hostage and they said they close at 5.  I had to stay at work until 4:30 because I had told my boss that I would stay til then and he wouldn't let me out early.  So 4:30, I rush out during traffic hour and even use the carpool lane.  I get there exactly at 5!  They were nice and gave me the key, but told me that they're still missing a form from the owners.  And that the owners had been sent out the stuff they needed to fill out twice.  Whatever.  I had my precious mail key!

I checked the mail, and because Bodyline has you sign for the package, there was a card for me to pick it up at the Post Office.

Tuesday morning, I go to the Post Office before work.  In my excitement, I open the package.  And it's HIDEOUS!  And it's made out of velvety material! Bodyline says it's made of "Cotton Others." It would be great in the winter, but not at a con :(  Even the yoke/collar is made of the thick velvet fabric T^T

So while I was at work, I contacted a girl who was selling an IW OP.  I had bookmarked the sale, and asked if she could send it by over night shipping.  She said yes!   So this was Tuesday.  She would ship it on Wednesday and I would get it on Thursday, giving me just enough time if I had to alter it or anything.  Friday I'm going straight from work to the con which will leave me very little time for sewing.

The dress has arrived and it's wonderful! ^^  yay!  Now enough procrastination, time to sew!

So, I made a mistake when I ordered with Oo Jia.  I asked for the wrong version of the JSK, I meant to ask for the JSK I version and not the JSK II version.

As you can see, it does make my eyes bigger, but it doesn't make them blue, more of a grey...  Sorry I have such a serious face, I was concentrating on taking the picture!

Posting it here before making it public on EGL!

I'm just posting some pics up of the OP I'm selling since I'm getting the Jsk! This already has a buyer.
